It would be interesting to know just what proportion of freeview viewers see their smart TV through their home router or the traditional aerial mounted on their roof or loft space.

Nicholas John Anderson: Very much an age thing. The younger the viewer the more likely they are to only use Smart TV apps. I've been in the trade for 45 years. I get calls now from people wanting their aerials removed. Freeview is popular with the older generation. because it is rooted in traditional broadcasting and doesn't require an internet connection. However, I think Freeview days are numbered facing a demise similar to the old VHF 405 line system that was being phased out when I started in this business. In 1982, small 405 line repeater transmitters like Cambridge were being closed. Hardly anyone used them, a bit like some of these Freeview Lite transmitters. I think the Commercial Multiplexes could leave Freeview soon to save money leaving it as a Public Service only platform. In the end, the 405 line system was only available on major transmitters like Crystal Palace and Croydon before the final shutdown in 1985.
